Children in years 3,4 and 5 participated in borough athletics on Friday 28th June. Everyone tried their absolute best.

Year 5 and 6 Girls Football:
The girls football team have competed in two football matches this term (vs Stifford clays and Quarry Hill) in both matches the girls have shown true fight and displayed excellent teamwork and skills. Unfortunately not getting the result we all wanted so far but the team will continue to play at such a level in games that after Christmas will result in success!
Year 5 and 6 Boys Football:
The boys have played three matches thus far against Thameside, Woodside and Gateway and have played exceptionally well in all games. They have progressively looked more of a team and as the matches continue they are showing a great attitude and resilience resulting in their first point of the season vs Gateway, well done boys!
